Article Summary

Introduction

Key vault is a cloud storage service that stores secure data such as certificates, keys, and secrets in order to reduce the chances of security information being accidentally leaked.

In Turbo360, Key Vault offers secret management to safely store and tightly limit access to the secrets. It does this by monitoring them using the available metrics and notifying the user when the Secrets in the Key Vault are about to expire.

Resource Dashboard

A default resource dashboard is available for Key Vault resources in the Overview section, allowing for enhanced data visualization and tracking of real-time data.
